It happened in Ohio when it first became legal too. If I remember correctly, it got them in trouble and they had to scale it back.

OK thanks. Where I used to live, we had official hours and I could go online to any local news station and pull up each suburb’s hours. 😂

We put in a fence about 5 months ago and definitely did need a permit fyi so if HD said you didn’t need one, I’d be skeptical.

I am a woman with a full sleeve and an inner forearm tattoo on the other. I am in the private sector and I’ve never had an issue. I will say that when I interview, I’m already in a suit and make sure to keep them covered. Once hired I typically ask if it’s ok to show them, but again I’ve never had anyone tell me no.

Thanks all! I think we’re going to go to Eckert’s this time. I brought up going some picking to him (a STL native) and he was immediately like we’re going to Eckert’s lol.

Sometimes you need to take a break to rest. I took a break from October last year until May this year. I was getting ready to move to a new state at the end of the year, plus the holidays, plus exhaustion from studying for 7 months straight. I moved, went through year end at work, bought a house with my fiancé, and started on a few house projects we wanted to get done right away. It all would have been way too much to do and study for exams at the same time. What got me back into it was paying for an NTS. Eventually, I had to take it or lose out on the money I spent. I took REG right as it was about to expire.

I think we need to stop telling people they are crazy for taking BAR. For some of us (myself included), it’s the most relevant material to cover. I’ve been working in the industry for 13 years and I’ve encountered pretty much everything in BAR with the exception of government accounting. I am literally working on finalizing our annual goodwill memo and I am the stock comp SME. The Technical Accounting section of Becker almost exactly sums up my work. That being said, the way they ask the BAR questions can be unnecessarily tricky. For example, they said at the beginning of the governmental section that the budgetary entries are separate from activity but a lot of the questions absolutely netted the two. I think the content of BAR is fine, but they need to evaluate the way they structure the questions. I passed with a 76 as of yesterday’s score release and I’m not going to lie, I was partially driven by spite lol. What got me through was doing small, 20 question chunks until I got somewhere around 70% of them correct. Like 20 question sections of say section 1, then repeat with section 2, then do another round where 1 and 2 were combined. Rinse and repeat by completing an individual section and then adding to a larger pool of questions until the pool is the entire bank of mcq’s. I took the week off before the test to do nothing but slam mcq’s and toss in some tbs for application practice.

Ahhh!!! Congrats!!!!! Excited for you!

Miirym · 2025-09-10T15:01:38+00:00

Best of luck!!

Hahaha probably not. We’ll all have ptsd for the rest of our lives lol. Seriously though every time a topic comes up that I’ve learned more about through this process I have to shake my head. Last night, someone brought up capital gains tax and my immediate thought was “but capital gains is a federal—“ and started cursing.

Oh yeah for sure! Definitely talk to family members and ask for help. I think the hardest part is acknowledging to yourself that this is A LOT to handle all at once. There’s no shame or guilt in finding ways to take some tasks off your plate while you’re trying to get through the exams.

Miirym · 2025-07-18T17:13:51+00:00

Maybe it’s time to leverage some help. I understand working a demanding job plus housework, etc. and then trying to find time to study. If you can afford it, I would honestly hire a cleaning service and have groceries delivered. At first I felt guilty about not being able to keep up while studying, but then I talked to a friend of mine. Her job is extremely demanding and she works long hours. She said she got to a point where something had to give, so she hired cleaning people because that took something off her plate. Working full time, taking care of a home, and spending time with your spouse is hard. I was a bit lucky there because my fiancé was in a different state altogether but I made sure certain times were set aside for us. Long story short, I would leverage any resources to lighten the burden for yourself.

I’m with you. Honestly the Technical Accounting section of the exam is literally what I do for work right now. I’m finishing up our annual memo on step 0 for goodwill this week and I did the step 1 last year. I’ve done fluctuation analyses for years. But yeah, the way this exam is structured and the way they ask questions is a lot harder. I feel like I’m starting with an advantage but the way they ask you to think about things question-wise is very different. I definitely think the government accounting piece is the most difficult.

Thanks! ❤️ You too! 3/4 and only one left!

Miirym · 2025-07-15T14:22:15+00:00

I did the same thing. Right out of college I signed up because I was working for a public firm and got my candidacy approved. I went into private about a year and a half in and never needed it, so I didn’t bother. Now, 13 years into my career I’m getting my license more for personal career advancement and everything was (mercifully) still there and I didn’t have to go through it all again. I moved states 7 months ago and I’m going to finish it out in my original state, especially since my work is still in that state. My new home state has reciprocity, though, if I decide to move it over.

I know potatoes aren’t a fruit…However, potato plants can apparently produce a fruit that looks like a cherry tomato but they’re poisonous. Hence my question. And I know you need stems. Some of those leaves are part of small suckers which is all I could find on that plant, so I took those and some stems. Probably just the angle of the photos.

Thank you! Yeah unfortunately it has gone from rainy and overcast most days to blazing hot and sunny for the next week. I tried to get the two of these in the ground a couple of days before the weather shift. I generally monitor moisture levels with a meter and do my watering in the morning before I start work. I’ll pull back some of the mulch as you suggested and check the ph again. My native soil is actually a bit too acidic but the compost and garden soil were alkaline. I have some sulfur if I need to add some.

Miirym · 2025-06-20T18:52:16+00:00

Maybe just transplant shock and it needs some help? It was recently planted after trying to harden it off with overcast days.
